Subject: ViewHar errors and issues

Question: I tried to view and had several problems with "ViewHar". At one point got a message about how the version I was using was out of date (I think it came from the CD). Then I got several GPFs, and had to reboot.

Answer: The problem has to do with one's directory structure. With GEMPACK you can't have directory names that exceed 8 characters, or that have spaces in them. The best way to overcome the problem is to make sure you create a directory "Onegtap" or "Rungtap" (or any other name you choose, which doesn't exceed 8 characters) in C:\ (as opposed to some other directory under "program files" etc.)
